I think the next big push here should be to change state law so that intiatives enjoy the democratic process and once passed should never be changed except by the vote of the people. Other wise, no matter what changes us citizens try to pass it will all be for nothing.
That's really the way it should be. Looking at the laws passed in some of the other states, Colorado has it as a constitutional amendment. Maybe so should the voters of Washington after it hopefully gets on the ballot and passed. And while we're at it, move for a constitutional amendment for all election funding be supported by the public and all donations go to a common pool to be drawn from equally by all candidates for any office. Like they would ever allow elimination of their slush funds and legal bribes. :thumbsup:
